volunteer as a physician

Bayanihan Clinic would not be capable of providing health services to the underserved communities of the Greater Sacramento area without the dedication of our amazing preceptors. Physicians and residents are a vital component of our clinic, and we are always seeking for more preceptors! We accept volunteers as early as first year residents!

​

If you would like to learn more about us, ask questions, or if you're interested in joining the team at Bayanihan Clinic as a clinical volunteer, send a copy of your CV to our preceptor coordinator at preceptor@bayanihanclinic.com
